Mosaic, Mandarina Bavaria & Amarillo hopping dominate this American IPA, with ample amounts of each added in kettle & whirpool + dry hopped at the rate of 1.5 pounds per barrel. Expect a bright array of citrus tangerine, grapefruit, and orange punctuated by dank, earthy herbal notes all in the name of a juicy hop attack.

Another juicy, well crafted IPA from Bluejacket, this one with a little extra rind in the typically fresh hop profile. Quaffed on site at the Bluejacket. A deep orange/gold body with a well laced soft white head. The nose pops with juicy grapefruit and orange. A very fresh, juicy grapefruit hoppiness leads the taste profile. Dank earthy hops, orange rind, melon and kiwi, along with sweet bready malt, add to the experience. And edge on the hops keeps rising as the beer moves towards room temperature. Another prize

Sampled from the tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has earthy citrus and grass with a hint of onion and a light grain backbone. Flavor has more grass with some bitter pine, grapefruit and a hint of onion underlying.

Draft at the source. Clear deep golden color. Nice aroma of fresh oranges and lemon lime. Taste is bittersweet citrus. Nicely balanced and very easy drinking.
